You can put this solution on YOUR website! Question:
use the distributiveproperty to removethe parentheses in the expression. Simplify by combining like terms. 7(4w-3)-25w
Answer:
7 ( 4w - 3 )- 25w
use the distributive property to remove the parentheses in the expression.
==> 7 *4w - 7* 3 - 25w
==> 28 w - 21 - 25w
Now combine the like terms( That is the terms which contain the same variable, here like terms are 28w and 25w)
==> 28 w - 25w - 21
==> (28 w - 25w) - 21
==> 3w - 21,
Here you can simplify further by taking out the common term from both
==> 3(w - 7 ), which is the simplified form
Hope you found the explanation useful.
